Easter Weekend

It's so weird now that we've moved-- I feel totally disconnected from everyone even though I'm like ten minutes away! I still need to put before and after pictures but we aren't quite done with the after yet-- we're doing some remodeling already (we haven't even unpacked everything yet) so I don't want to do after pictures or have a house warming party until we are at least done with phase one of the remodel.

So, Easter was lots of fun. My mom came and had a great time with us. She bought Tyler a moterized car (yes, he is one year old and no he doesn't need it but Grandma is a spoiler). He actually loves whizzing around in it. He's pretty good at steering it too.


My mom brought many other gifts and had a great time showering them on Tyler.

I have been doing nothing but painting (every wall in in every room). The other night Erik was taking Tyler in for a bath and he says to me, "How good is your sense of humor right now?" Whenever he asks that I'm always very cautious. He took naked Tyler and pressed his little behind and feet onto the wet paint on the wall and then pressed him on the white wall I hadn't painted yet. Here is the result:

We always tie-dye our Easter eggs every year. They seem to come out pretty cool so I thought I'd share some pics from the dying session:




We had lots of fun! Ok I have to get back to painting now! New flooring is going in soon and I have to get the painting done before the floors can be re-done!

I don't care if you're not done- I want to see pictures! The painting of "Tyler" is hilarious ;)! And your eggs are really cute how'd you get them to look like that?

We tie dye our eggs by wrapping them in a hot piece of cotton fabric (a ripped up bedsheet or pillowcase works just fine) and then use eye droppers to put the color on. My great grandpa invented it. We should have patented it and made a million bucks. Oh well.

This post is not coming to you VIA Jennifer. This is her husband, Erik. I decided to hijack her blog (ah...the things you can do when in possession of another's password) and tell her how I feel about her. This will probably not be posted for long, I am sure as soon as she sees it she will remove it. HERE GOES! Jennifer, my dear, I love you oh so very much. On Monday is our 1 year anniversary! A whole year! That may not seem like much, but my oh my it has flown by quickly. Since you are a relative young'un that year actually represents around 4.76% of your entire lifespan(thus far). I still keep my eye out for things that represent 'US'. Who can forget the 'EJ' Truck? I have never stopped looking for, nor noting 28s as they pop up all over the place. I notice all of the little things you do. I notice the little faces you make. I notice the little noises you make. I notice the slight shifting of your posture in response to my incessant joking. This face was made...

Brandt Gibson in a Nutshell

The Amazing Kell Bjorn decided to start keeping track of everything Brandt Gibson said. Here are a select few: “I’m a horse of a different color!” “No Pain…No Pain.” “Nobody corrals me!” “Die!” “But on the other hand, you have different fingers.” “I’m not stressed, I’m not stressed; if you tell me I’m stressed…I’ll kill you.” “I parked around back in the shade, so it doesn’t get 65,000 degrees in my car.” “Yeah, things you don’t want to hear from your bank…‘Oops’.” "You've been tasered!" "Click-click-a-click...booyah!" “Blame it on Kell, it’s all his fault…It was either Kell or Canada and you’re closer.” “Girls just want to have Lu-unch…” “I have been Dudded.” (After receiving some Milk Duds) “Get out of my Chaaiirrr.” (Said with a low raspy evil voice) “Gloria’s here…ruuunnn!” “That is highly possible…just not probable.” “Gift of tongues Kell, enjoy it.” “Revenge is a dish that is best served cold.” “Don't you think? Please use this well. Marriage becomes...

Escrow

Well we found the perfect house for us on Thursday! We put the offer on today and they accepted! We expect to close the third week of March! I knew it was the right one as soon as I walked in the door. The picture below shows half the house, you can't see the whole thing on Google Earth because of the trees. It's been updated really well, but it has a few things we can still do to get more value out of it when we sell it in a few years. It's totally cute on the inside, just under 2000 square feet and has a great yard and deck. It came with some nice perks too, so we're really excited. I'll have a nice big housewarming party so you can all see it in April once we're settled in! Yay! Ok so the sad part is, we won't be in the Dash Point Ward anymore. :( We'll be in the Federal Way ward so we're still in the stake at least. It's really sad because I totally love our ward, it's awesome and I love my calling with the Young Women but at least I w...
